APRIL 2014

PUB WALKS with Darcy For this month’s pub walk we return to the pretty village of Pettistree near Woodbridge visiting the dog friendly and aptly named Greyhound Inn As much as we love long walks with Darcy it is always good to have a choice of interesting shorter ones available and this walk starting in Pettristree has quickly become a firm favourite. At just over two miles in length, and easily completed in around 45 minutes, this walk is deceptive in that you feel like you cover a lot more ground than you actually do. Not because it is arduous, it isn’t, but because of the varied views encountered and different paths, track and quiet roads walked. I think the fact that the walk also briefly visits the nearby Wickham Market also makes it seem psychologically further than it actually is.

The walk initially heads out of the village passing the impressive church of St Peter and St. Paul, famed for its medieval stained glass windows, before heading across open fields and quiet tracks toward Wickham Market. A short section of quiet road walking brings you to the war memorial in town before heading back to Pettistree once again via open fields. If you want to walk in this area but fancy a longer route this walk also dovetails beautifully with our previous route from Pettistree the details of which can be found on our website www.essentialsuffolk.com/dog-walks
